Vertigo 2 Behind the Scenes: 2017 to 2023

[@CreekActual]

this whole Vertigo universe you've been crafting reeks of passion project. Big fan of the smell.

[@ianschrick9123]

i dont think reeks is the right word there lol

[@monikamorningstarshadlo4129]

@@ianschrick9123 reeks is both negative and positive, it describes a string odor

1:57 was not expecting that

[@ThatOneTylerVR]

It's come so far, and It's awesome to see it getting the recognition it deserves. I'm beyond excited to play it once I get the chance.

[@souporwormgaming]

8:42 This really is a half like; you even got the airboat!

[@jayr3053]

Just beat the game on PSVR 2 & it’s now one of my favorite VR games! Amazing work!

[@monikamorningstarshadlo4129]

The igneosaur staring at you after you shot the ice was peak comedy and 100% would’ve fit lol

[@CosmicComputer]

Just incredible man. I hope you never stop making vr games!

[@timewaster504]

The H3VR Easter egg was probably the best moment I’ve had playing a game in years! It was like running into an old friend where you least expected it also, half your captures were at midnight. you good man?

[@Vitoreo]

Indie dev life style.

[@FlorianFahrenberger]

This is amazing to see! Seriously! The amount of testing, trying, and improving that went into this is only just starting to show here.

[@FlorianFahrenberger]

And hey, the visual of the lava monster, as well as quite a few of its attacks were already pretty complete very early on!

[@laxwolf]

I can't believe this was done in Unity! So many great graphical effects I assumed it was Unreal... Kudos

[@silverscarab8072]

As someone who had never heard of Vertigo. I had a blast with Vertigo 2 (I will be trying the Remastered) the game feels like it came from Valve or Stress Level Zero. And I'm so impressed with the length of the game! I hope this game gets more recognition!

[@crimson-foxtwitch2581]

the guy that made this worked on half life alyx

[@cusman]

I haven't played the game since I don't have PC capable of VR, but I was mesmerized by this "behind the scenes" video. I do have Quest 2 and the newly released PSVR2, so whenever this game makes it to one of those, I'll be getting it.

[@bop3242]

Finished Vertigo Remastered and Vertigo 2 recently and let me tell you, they are AWESOME I can't believe only one developer worked on this game. This game needs more recognition because it is one of the best vr games I have ever played. Loved all the easter egg and game references you have in there. Very well done :)

[@liampys-stuff]

you should add the old ionizer as a little secret

[@BrettDriver]

Amazing!

[@PepsiFruit]

As a game developer, I feel like a failure seeing such a great looking game 😂

[@Duckamoly]

Don’t compare yourself

[@henrynelson9301]

Don’t compare yourself man, it’s self destructive. Focus on yourself, learn and improve

[@vextormull]

I'd say compare to your past self. But I think you know that. Obviously you'll feel like a failure if you compare yourself to a successful one. I'll feel the same lol.

[@15098D]

Honestly, mood

[@Easton-guh]

So do I😢😅

[@IanDeMartino]

Vertigo Remastered was the first narrative VR game I played through twice. This video ensures that Vertigo 2 becomes the second. So many cool moments I want to see again.

[@Duckamoly]

This is going to be such a great watch

[@bradgamingandmore731]

This game is amazing

[@32BitJunkie]

Wildly impressive scope. It'd be neat to see how you built so many environments so fast, and how the materials were done

[@beardedwolf628]

So much effort went into every small part of this game and I believe you created the single best VR game since Alyx. For a small team this is just insane. I don't remember having this much fun playing and checking out someone's creation in years. So many hilarious and original enemy types, characters, amazing weapons, so much interactivity in the world. I'm only at about a quarter of the game but it's been a blast. Reminds me of the days people got a budget to create a game with three friends, before massive 400 employee studios made all the games. Except yours is MUCH higher effort than I've ever seen even a small team do. This game definitely deserves to be a huge success, may it be released on Quest and PSVR as well just to generate more sales for this incredible game.

[@ShadisDemarco]

Very cool to see the evolution of the game over the years! Starting it tonight!

[@naenaemister5048]

you are truly a master of your craft man all these amazing ideas so early in the hay didn’t get scrapped it is so impressive

[@interflashz]

what a journey, can't wait to get to my vr setup and experience the result!

[@travskitz]

As a fan, thanks for putting this together

[@Monkeymario.]

looks like vr gmod!

[@kasimahmad5980]

Thank you for showing us the journey, so satisfying to witness the design process

[@royalcrow1668]

i love the old ionizer it looks so cool

[@ichorstryker]

You did all this by yourself!? Godspeed you magnificent man. AAA games grovel at Vertigo 2's feet.

[@ThatCoolDude97]

I am leaving for a 1 week trip tomorrow, almost sad I'm leaving cause I wanted to fire this up the first weekend it was out lol. Sooo stoked for this. Hope my original Vive can still do this game justice on a 3080. Fortunately I have knuckles though.

[@BigSunn0]

Ugh man, please make more games! I can't believe what I just played

[@KabouiRevolverFan]

13:01 holy i fw this

[@The_Golden_Toaster]

Personally I would have preferred the on-beat vertigo logo 13:10 but it felt way better when it all came at once

[@RidgeVR]

Every single gun at once was hilarious

[@AllHailKingGila]

I loved the starfox64 tank level inspired hummingbird boss!

[@Lordofhogs]

1:52 this would have been such a good enemy

[@Caleb-qr6lo]

This is very cool to see. Hope some of those gun designs come back somehow. Can’t wait to see what comes next. Imagine what you could do with your own team.

[@Crispy_CornFlake]

I wish I had that sort of determination to develop a game for 6 years all by myself

[@slyose6154]

Simply awesome

[@slyose6154]

unreal how good of a dev you are

[@soupsoupisyum5943]

Holy shit you’ve been working on this for half a decade! I didn’t even know! Congratulations on the amazing game!

[@BenBart30]

thats crazy

[@soupsoupisyum5943]

@@BenBart30 that’s even crazier

[@JurassicJordan]

I aspire to be 1/8th as good of a game dev as you are, sir.

[@Dremaus1911]

I hope theres a vertigo 3 coming out this games fun as hell!

[@Roshaan37]

Such a long development process. After half life Alyx, I wanted another VR game that was on the same level that was narrative focused with some good gunplay. Vertigo 2 and the remake was a joy to play. I hope to see more projects akin to these games in the future from this studio and from others as well.

[@antonprokhorov8769]

interesting that pistol had modular system and different firing modes but it got cut

[@mannefix2]

WOW!

[@lipek2178]

Hoping vertigo 3 is a thing in the future.

[@JackFoxtrotEDM]

I wanna see one of these weapons in H3VR.

[@macbooksnmac10s]

Did you use an off the shelf VR interaction framework, or did you end up building one yourself?

Are you hiring anyone for future titles/dlc?
